The Child of Dreams by Irena Brignull
A moving picture book that celebrates family and belonging, from acclaimed screenwriter Irena Brignull. A little girl wants to know where she came from and why she doesn’t have a father. When her mother cannot tell her, the girl decides to find out for herself. Her journey leads her on a quest through the woods, tracing her own story back to its source with the help of the animals she meets, until she discovers what truly matters in making a family. A timeless story with sumptuous illustrations, this picture book will be shared and treasured by all families whatever their shape or size. "A joy to pore over."
